The Allahabad High Court on Thursday is likely to pronounce its verdict on an appeal filed by dentist couple Rajesh and Nupur Talwar, challenging their conviction for the murder of their teenage daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj.

The couple were sentenced to life imprisonment by a special CBI court in Ghaziabad in November, 2013.

They were also convicted for the destruction of evidence with common intent, while Rajesh Talwar was additionally convicted of giving a false statement to police.
